About the Book

Blackwell's Neurology and Psychiatry Access Series: Child and Adolescent Neurology is a comprehensive yet succinct book targeted at the primary care physician but it was designed with a broad audience in mind including pediatric, neurology, psychiatry and child neurology physicians. It is also a useful introductory and review text for student or postgraduate physicians, as well as a valuable reference for paraprofessionals in these fields. This book remains a useful desktop reference, and is expandable into an exhaustive text by the use of its annotated and more comprehensive bibliographies.The book is divided into three sections: Section 1 emphasizes neurodiagnosis. It includes comprehensive history and age-specific examinations which can be reproduced and tailored to individual uses. Useful introductory chapters are included in the fields of neurophysiology (electrodiagnosis) and state-of-the-art neuroimaging; Section 2 uses a conventional approach to understanding of diseases/disorders in child neurology. New in this section is a chapter entitled 'Order and Disorders of Central Nervous System Development' which uses a unique teleologic approach. This includes the latest in our understanding of neurogenetic and neuroembryologic mechanisms in developmental neuropathology; Section 3 visits the most commonly seen conditions in child neurology. New is the chapter on AD/HD.Blackwell's Neurology and Psychiatry Access Series has been designed to teach the art of diagnosis and treatment of neurologic and mental disease using a rational approach. In this way the research can apply both deductive and inductive reasoning to arrive at a diagnosis and formulate a plan for treatment.The format of this book is unique in the way it presents information, making a feature of 'boxes'. These are designed to provide the reader with additional information and 'wisdom' from the experienced contributors to the book rather than just the clinical knowledge.This approach introduces an inductive nosologic approach to diagnosis, employing discriminating, consistent, and variable features. Other boxes include:* Pearls and Perils* Consider Consultation When...* Key Clinical Questions and What They Unlock (new in this Edition)These boxes of information and questions prompt the clinician with time-saving questions that "cut to the chase." This is a clinically relevant, multifunction text.

Review :
Access Series "...edited by outstanding leaders in the field...welcome not only as a textbook for the student but also as an important reference for the general practitioner" New England Journal of Medicine"...this is a rich and important textbook and joins the first rank of paediatric neurology textbooks. It is as up to date as possible. It contains a great deal of excellent material, much of which is probably unequalled elsewhere." New England Journal of Medicine
